Schematic of mechanism

Fig. 6. Schematic of mechanisms for accumulation of vibrational energy on a vibrator. DIMET refers to multiple one-step excitations, thus dominating when the excitation (dashed arrows) rates are comparable to decay rates. DIET refers to one step gain of several quanta. This mechanism is mediated by anharmonicities of the vibrational potential. In general, a transition of several quanta at once has lower probability, but since the total number of steps is so decreased, it dominates over a DIMET mechanism for sufficient low excitation rates.

The above discussion has tacitly assumed that it is only molecular interactions which lead to adhesion, and these have been assumed to occur across relatively smooth interfaces between materials in intimate contact. As described in typical textbooks, however, there are a number of disparate mechanisms that may be responsible for adhesion [9-11,32]. The list includes (1) the adsorption mechanism (2) the diffusion mechanism (3) the mechanical interlocking mechanism and (4) the electrostatic mechanism. These are pictured schematically in Fig. 6 and described briefly below, because the various semi-empirical prediction schemes apply differently depending on which mechanisms are relevant in a given case. Any given real case often entails a combination of mechanisms. 

Fig. 4. Schematic of the JKR treatment of contact mechanics calculations. The point (, a, P) corresponds to the actual state under the action of interfacial forces and applied load P. P is the equivalent Hertzian load corresponding to contact radius a between the two surfaces, ( o, P) and (S], a, P ) are the Hertzian contact points. The net stored elastic energy and displacement S are calculated as the difference of steps 1 and 2.

Pilot-operated relief valves use the pressure in the vessel rather than a spring to seal the valve and a pilot to activate the mechanism. Figure 13-6 is a schematic of a typical pilot-operated valve. A piece of tubing communicates pressure between the relief valve inlet and pilot. When this pressure is below the set pressure of the pilot, the pilot valve is in the position... 

Acceleration is perhaps the best method of determining the force resulting from machine vibration. Accelerometers use piezoelectric crystals or films to convert mechanical energy into electrical signals and Figure 43.23 is a schematic of such a device. Data acquired with this type of transducer are relative...
